📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Italian sausage, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

2. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a burger patty about 1 inch thick.

3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

4. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through (internal temperature of 160°F).

5. Reduce the heat to low and spoon about 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce onto each patty. Place a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.

6. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt, about 2-3 minutes.

7. Toast the burger buns in a separate pan or under a broiler, if desired.

8. Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun bottom, topping with a fresh basil leaf, and then adding the bun top.

9. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as a green salad or garlic fries.
